Item description from seller

Three-hole punched and staple bound. 143, [3] pages. Table. Figures. References. BLOT is a graphics program for post-processing of finite element analysis output that is presented in the EXODUS database format. It is command driven with free-format input and can drive any graphics device supported by the Sandia Virtual Device Interface. BLOT produces mesh plots with various representations of the analysis output variables. The major mesh plot capabilities are deformed mesh plots, line contours, banded contours, vector plots of two or three variables (e.g., velocity vectors), and symbol plots of scalar variables (e.g., temperature). Pathlines of analysis variables can also be drawn on the mesh. BLOT's features include element selection by material, element birth and death, multiple views for combining several displays on each plot, symmetry mirroring, and node and element numbering. BLOT can also produce X-Y curve plots of the analysis variables. BLOT generates time-versus-variable plots or variable-versus-variable plots. It generates distance versus-variable plots at selected time steps where the distance is the accumulated distance between pairs of nodes or element centers. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This program incorporates several existing programs: DETOUR, TPLOT, SPLOT, and GROPE. The first version of DETOUR was written by Dennis P. Flanagan. The first version of TPLOT was written by Zelma E. Beisinger and Charles M. Stone. The first version of SPLOT was written by Mary R. Sagartz. The code for the neutral file output was writ ten by Greg D. Sjaardema.…
